Any of the tumblers work relatively fast to make finished compost. Is that why
she wants one? If not, what's wrong with an old fashioned stationary compost
bin?

Hello! I have gone to google and looked at the old posts on rotating
composters, but none seemed to answer my question: I am looking at
purchasing one for my mother, who is in her early 80s, and small but wiry.
She has had one of the ones on a stand bought maybe 7-10 years ago, and
the handle you rotate it with and the barrel have degraded in the heat.
She would like a new one, and I would like to find one for her that is
easy to turn, or, what about one of those ones I've seen that sit near the
ground and you rotate by stepping on the indents in the sides?

Grateful for all advice!
